Note on Ruben McGinnis: Ruben was a farmer and also worked at Boone furnace. While serving the home guard on Tygart's Creek during the Civil War he recalled how his group once accidently shot and killed a 14 year old boy. With heavy hearts they had to bare the boy home to a sorrowful mother. In 1869 he sold his farm at Gesling with plans to join the migration west to Missouri or Arkansas. After a visit however, he changed his mind as the "fever" was rampant there and he feared for his family. Instead he and his son Bill bought another farm on McDowell Creek. In the 1850 Carter County Census records show that Ruben held real estae valued at 300.00. The 1850 census also shows that living in Ruben's household were a John McGinnis, age 73 born in Maryland and a Rebecca McGinnis, age 65 born South Carolina. Presumably, John is a brother to William McGinnis, ruben's father, making John and Rebecca, Ruben's aunt and uncle.

Notes on David McGinnis: David McGinnis and his brother Benjamin bought a tract of land up on Tygart's Creek. It was part of the Canifax land grant which extended several miles along Tygert's Creek. The upper end of the land was the best because there was more bottom land, so they drew straws for the better half and Benjamin was the winner.
The Canifax grant was an old settlement and had been well developed. A government whiskey still stood on the upper end of the property adn there was a grocery store where the whiskey was sold. Being slave owners, much farming was done. They probably raised their own corn for the still.
The slave cabins stood at the foot of the hill back of where William, son of Benjamin, would later build his home. The old rock walled spring can still be seen and still affords water. Alma Glore, in 1994, said she could remember the old rail fence that was built along the section of land where the slave cabins had stood.
